A Purple & Lilac Inspiration

Designers Guild is divine for interior decorating your house!






A beautiful retreat to go to with your loved one is a little hotel in France in the village of St. Remy, called La Maison du Village. I wouldn't mind having a that bath filled with warm water and rose pettals!







I Love reed diffusers, especially the ones in a beautiful bottle like these. In my shop I sell the Bridgewater collection.... Sweet Magnolia and Bouquet of Roses are real favourites of mine!

Keep creating beauty all around your home, it is designed2b beauttiful for you!

Love Carolyn

Bed/rooms to dream about and to inspire you!








The interiors are by Phoebe Howard designs http://www.phoebehoward.net/ and Ruthie Sommers & Chapman interior http://chapmanradcliffhome.com/


I just llove this dressing room look! The comfortable stool is a delight and invites to perch on. Making you spray your favourite perfume all over .... then kissing your loved ones goodbye and dash off to work!

Leaving yourself lingering on in the air!

hmmmmmmmmm....
IF you want to have your rooms look as beautiful as these then just give me a call or write me an email and I can give you an estimate of what it would cost... to 'ZEN' your living space! It will feel miraculous! and as if a fresh breeze has passed through...
Go on and give it a try!
Your house is designed2b Beautiful for you.
All my love, Carolyn

Wishing you all a Happy, Creative, Inspiring and Beautiful 2010


My New years resolutions are:

to keep following my heart and intuïtion.

tell myself everyday that I am a very lucky woman

to live life to the full and enjoy it whatever crosses my path

judge no one

stay openminded

spend prime time with my family

send more birthday cards (i am not a great scorer here)

turn Designed2b Beautiful into a ssucces

have lots of fun

keep inspiring people

Be a yes in people's lives

quit thinking... more: JUST DO IT!

coach more women in what they love doing and make them succesful too!


Hmmmm, I need to print this blog post and hang it up in my Boutique... just to make sure I stick to all my resolutions....


Get a new Journal to write down all my next projects and ideas... last years is full and most of my To Do's have worked out magically! Frequently I THINK, well what did I achieve this year and you think well cannot be that impressive... but as I check my calender and Journal, I realize that most I JUST DID and that I have actually had a very exciting year... concluding: turning the thinking into doing is far more fun and gets results you want.
So my wish for you all is to keep designing, keep being beautiful and happy , keep following your heart, LOVE!

and build strong lifetime friendships...


I would like to end with a quote from COCO CHANEL: In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.


All my love, Carolyn
